I didn’t want to be accused of gullibility on April Fool’s Day, so I approached these FKA Twigs-Robert Pattinson engagement rumors with a great deal of skepticism. T-Pain got the ball rolling when Vulture published an interview in which T-Pain made reference to how Twigs is one of his favorite artists these days but she won’t appear on his new album because she’s ENGAGED. He said:

“…She’s on tour so much, and anytime I call her, she’s in a different place. And she’s engaged now, so that’s about to be a whole other thing…Yeah, to ol’ Patty [Robert Pattinson]. I don’t know if she wanted anybody to know that …”

Vulture added an update to the story later saying that T-Pain’s comment was an April Fool’s Joke. But! People Magazine had already jumped on the story and their sources say that Twigs & Patty are in fact engaged…?

Sorry, Twihards: Robert Pattinson is officially off the market. The actor and FKA twigs are engaged after just six months of dating, two sources tell PEOPLE. The couple’s reps are not commenting.

PEOPLE confirms the engagement, despite T-Pain’s later Tweet that the slip of tongue was an April Fool’s prank.

So, what’s the truth? I’m erring on the side of… the engagement is probably on. A month ago, we heard that Patty/Sparkles gave Twigs a “promise ring” which sounds more like an engagement ring. They’ve been loved up since last fall, so while this may seem fast, I think Rob is actually this romantic and spontaneous. He’s in love. He wants to marry her. And I would guess that he gave her a ring.
